In a sequence of events, what tool helps determine chronology?
Correct Answer:
Time markers and transitional cues
Explanation:
Determining the order of events relies on time markers and transitional cues. These are words and phrases that signal when something happens, helping you map out the sequence. Look for markers like first, next, then, after that, before, finally, and transitions such as meanwhile or subsequently. They guide the reading from one event to the next and make the chronology clear. Other elements can enrich a scene but don’t reliably establish order. Vivid imagery enhances how things feel or look, not when they occur. Dialogue gives spoken exchanges and can happen at various times, but by itself it doesn’t lay out a timeline. Repetition emphasizes ideas or motifs rather than sequencing.
